You never sit on my knee while I'm watching tv so the evil eye and sulks over the edge of the sofa are just going to make me laugh (honestly - just these eyes and a pair of ears laid flat - I nearly wet myself when I saw what he was doing!).

It's only for another 2 1/2 weeks, and you get your own special food, your own special place on the bed and your own sunlamp (when I'm in the shower) so I don't know what your nose is so far out of joint...

I am laughing so hard here at that image!

My younger cat once had a fit when I was holding a visiting baby. I was not supposed to be cuddling anyone but him!

You are only young once. After that you have to think up some other excuse.

One of my Siamese got so jealous that I was petting a visiting cat that she bit me. Not on the offending hand, but in the middle of my back. Try explaining THAT to the medical clinic.

Yes, Daddy was trying to keep you out of the kitchen. We don't really want you vanishing down the pipe cavities while the plumber works.

He unlocked the door and opened it. He looked round, no cat. He slid in, carefully not opening it wide enough for you to get through, and closed the door behind him. He made his cup of tea, keeping an eye on the kitchen door in case it should mysteriously open. It did not. He opened the door a crack and looked for cats. No sign. He rushed out, trying not to spill his tea, and closed and locked the door behind him again (by which point, yes Mummy was laughing).

So why, five minutes later, did we hear scratching coming from inside the kitchen door, and have to let you out?

Regards,The baffled staff

P.S. By the way, Daddy now acknowledges that your ninjitsu is superior to his own.

Thank you for being gracious hosts to visiting kitties Grigio and Cheryl, who had to be evacuated along with their giver-of-food due to the fires here in Colorado. All seven of you have been peacefully ignoring each tother - granted, there is a door seperating the two groups, but still...

I don't know which of you did it. I'm leaning towards Smokey just due to some suspicious behavior earlier this morning (i.e. RACING into the house, skidding on the kitchen floor, then continuing on when he has arthritis and usually moves at the pace of a turtle) - but Mommy does NOT appreciate finding a dead bird at the foot of the stairs, which I almost tripped over.

Mouse, if you did it, I know you want to be a bird, but it is not going to happen. Get over it. Killing a bird in retaliation is not appropriate.

As a side note - this was a REALLY dumb bird if one of you was able to catch it.

Midnight used to go behind the washing machine frequently. Sometimes she would yeowl and paw/scratch at the wall, so I would tell her to cut it out. When the plumber removed the failing washer/dryer unit, we discovered a large hole in the wallboard behind the washer. We're lucky Midnight didn't climb in! I can just imagine the creepy crawlers she was chasing back there. <shudder> No wonder she insisted that was part of her realm which needed oversight several times a day.

While not "mockingbirds," the local pigeons used to enjoy perching on our lanai railing taunting (dare I say, "mocking") Midnight. She would chatter back, lash her tail, and jump on the bird's shadow, then look up at that "mocking" bird and chatter what she would do if he dared come down from that rail. DH was worried that Midnight might try to jump to catch one of those birds and fall, but she wasn't that dumb.

You are pigs. Mommy and Daddy go to work every day to keep you in the lap of luxury, and you repay us by scarfing down four bowls of food a day. Please slow down. Otherwise, we will soon find ourselves out of house and home, with nothing but empty Blue Buffalo bags to keep us warm.

I realize that somehow you missed out on the grace that is suppose to come naturally to a cat...but if you don't stop tromping so heavily all over me when I'm trying to sleep you are going to be locked out of the bedroom. Your sister weighs a good 2 lbs more than you, but she manages to walk as light as a feather. Try and learn from her.

Actually, it is just about the opposite. Rukia is starting to emerge as disdainful and aloof. Byakuya is the more fiesty playful one. But, both are adorable and very sweet. At 11 weeks old, they are going vertical...ARGH I love them
